Alabama River

With the lack of rain the water level on the Alabama River is extremely low. From Montgomery to Jones Bluff, what little grass is left is high and dry. The largemouth bite is hard to come by so a spot bite should be your intended target. The shaky head bite has been steady but finding quality fish has proven difficult. Deep cranking has also produced. With both patterns, you are going to have to run and gun. Don’t sit on one area too long.

Lake Jordan

The water level continues to run below full pool due to the lack of rain. Also, the water is clearer than I have seen in years making the shallow bite tough. Early morning topwater is on fire with monster spots in excess of five pounds a good possibility. Later in the day with any wind should find you throwing a spinnerbait and or jerk bait on wind blown points. On days without the wind, switch to a shaky head and work deep cover in 10 to 15 feet of water. The night time bite is picking up quality fish coming on spinnerbaits and jigs. Please remember to take care of your fish and release them in as good of shape as you can. Even with the pressure this lake receives, it continues to produce. It is up to every angler to see that this remains!!!

Lake Mitchell

Wow, what a great May lake. Number of good fish between 3 and 5 pounds have come on a Carolina rigged lizard and shaky heads. Fish are deeper than in years past again due in part to the lack of rain and oxygen in the water. Early morning topwater has produced with several “toad” spots crushing a spook.
